Final Fantasy was the most Steampunk of all of them. I think that's why it's my favorite. It was the only FF that had the Victorian style environment and involved technology that used steam and gunpowder.
@KlassyKamikaze Do you mean the first one? Haven't played it but VII also had victorian style environments, steam locomotives and gunpowder. It was more 20th century overall. I'd say that the first 9 all had steampunk elements. Then X went futuristic and XIII vs. appears to be coming back to a relatable setting with vehicles, roads, realistic attire and a gas station, but sadly appears more fantasy than sci-fi with crystals and floating around.
@valleyshrew Oops I meant Final Fantasy VI. Final Fantasy VI was the MOST steampunk of them all. It was the only FF that had the Victorian style environment and involved technology that used steam and gunpowder. It was also the only one set in a Industrial Age timeline as well. That's why it's my favorite.
@tau000 NIN isn't "Goth." Think more Switchblade Sympathy, the Cure, and Baudaas. Now, I'm not saying NIN is a bad band, but they arn't Goth, as in the Goth style.
It is not pronounced phonetically. It is an abbreviation.
Incidentally, a phonetic pronunciation would render a single syllable with the phonemes m as in mother and b as in boy strung together. I'm not sure that this is technically possible without the phoneme of a vowel between them. =)
Always good see intelligent conversation on YouTube. Beats the usual "LOL U SUCK" "NO U". Gives a glimmer of hope that the entire human race isn't going down the pan.
I think is a Mistpunk. lol

I think the Al Bhed from FFX were pretty steampunk too. But this works more with the airship theme I guess. :D Good video.

@therealluna Yes. Look at their keyboardist. Riku looks just like her. I bet the creators saw her/the band when they were making Riku/FF10.

Or mb there is. Mb they're just so stealthy that I've never heard of them.
christiangoth84 3 years ago
How does mb = maybe?
I mean u, 2, 4... I can get that...
but mb would be pronounced embee at closest...

christiangoth84 3 years ago
Well yes, but if you say them out loud you get the desired word.
2 = two/to/too
4 = four/for
u = you
But mb is either just something akin to umb or embee, but I suppose since i know what you meant, it worked.
